Padres Give Gwynn An 11-Run Salute On His Hall Induction Day: Padres 18, Astros 11
The Padres scored 11 in the first inning in Houston and ran away with the game while former Padre Tony Gwynn was being inducted into the Hall of Fame. The offensive explosion was only the second time in franchise history the team had scored so many runs in a first inning, and chased Houston starter Jason Jennings after he recorded only two outs. The Astros made it a game by getting seven runs in the fourth, getting their chance to remove a starter by tossing Tim Stauffer in his first appearance of the season, after only 3.2 innings.
With the win, the Padres get a four-game series split with the Astros. The Dodgers are presently losing 8-4 to the Rockies, and Atlanta is beating Arizona 8-0 in the 4th. If those leads hold, the Dodgers and Padres will be tied for first, with the Snakes falling into second place.
